First consultation Your first consultation can take up to 2 hours as we dive deep into your health concerns, first looking at your presenting complaint and then looking into each of the body systems to see how your body is interacting with itself. Your presenting complaint will be looked at in detail to find out when it started, anything that makes it better or worse, any tests you may have had done and any previous medical history. The body systems then looked at are: The nervous system Cardiovascular system Respiratory system Digestive system Reproductive system Musculoskeletal system Urinary system If it is appropriate a clinical exam may also take place with your consent. Before you attend your first appointment you will be sent a new patient questionnaire to fill in and after your appointment, before a prescription is dispensed, I will need further time to check for any potential herb-drug interactions and allergies, write your herbal prescription and consider any other lifestyle changes that could be appropriate. Further consultations After, generally a month, of taking your first prescription you will be asked to attend a follow up appointment where we can discuss how the herbal medicine has worked for you, to recheck any clinical exams as required and discuss your further treatment if needed.

After a period of a few months if your prescription needs become stable it will be possible to order repeat prescriptions for an agreed period of time without the need for review appointments - this will be advised on a case by case basis.

A new patient questionnaire will be sent to you before your first consultation to gather details such as Name and Address etc. Full Terms and Conditions, including cancellation policy, are laid out within the form for your acceptance before you attend your appointment.

You will be asked to bring with you a full list of any prescription medicine you are taking. Before a herbal medication is prescribed all ingredients will be checked for any potential herb-drug interactions and dispensed accordingly.

As all prescriptions are bespoke to your individual health needs, and can therefore be different per person, pricing is split into consultation fee and prescription fee. Some prescriptions may only consist of a tea or a tincture whilst others may consist of both. Prescription Fees (for a typical month) 400ml tincture- £40.00 100g herbal tea - £15.00 Supplements - £5.00 First consultation fee - £90.00 (Please note there is a £15 non-refundable deposit on first consultation bookings) Follow up consultation fee - £40.00 Repeat prescription - £5.00 (for my time to make your prescription, this is added to the price of your specific prescription cost) Postage - £5.50

Consultations can take place at my home address if you are local to me or alternatively they can be delivered online via video link if you are not local or if you simply prefer it that way.

If for any reason you are unable to make your appointment, please try to inform me at least 24 hours before. I will always try to accommodate rearranging appointments however if there is not more than 24 hours notice the full consultation fee will need to be paid.

Homeopathy is the theory of 'like cures like' with the use of diluted substances that in larger quantities would cause the symptom being treated. Remedies may be plant, animal or mineral derived. Herbalism makes use of the medicinal chemical constituents of plants where the traditional uses have been backed up by clinical trials and modern scientific research. Medical Herbalists (those who hold a BSc degree or equivalent in Herbal Medicine) have studied plant medicine and orthodox medicine and are trained in the same diagnostic skills as a GP. Although there is a large difference between the two, both treat each patient as unique and take into account both the physical and emotional health of a person, providing a holistic approach to treatment.
